Overview
Overview
BPDU Tunnel enables geographically segmented user networks to transmit BPDU
packets transparently over the specified VLAN VPN on the operator’s network. This
allows the user network to participate in a uniform spanning tree calculation while
maintaining a separate spanning tree from the operator network.
packets transparently over the specified VLAN VPN on the operator’s network. This
allows the user network to participate in a uniform spanning tree calculation while
maintaining a separate spanning tree from the operator network.
As shown in Figure 36, the operator’s network comprises packet ingress/egress
devices, and the user network has networks A and B. On the operator’s network,
you can configure to convert the MAC addresses of the arriving BPDU packets to a
special format at the ingress, and then reconvert them at the egress. This is how
transparent transmission is implemented on the operator’s network.
